Will not rest till FIRs lodged against Nitish, Sushil: Lalu

Patna: RJD chief Lalu Prasad on Tuesday said he will not rest till FIRs are lodged against Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and his deputy Sushil Kumar Modi in the alleged Srijan scam. Attacking the two leaders, he alleged that that the scam was in the knowledge of both of them.

"We will take the matter to the logical conclusion. We will not rest unless FIRs are lodged against Nitish Kumar and Sushil Modi in the scam," Prasad said, and questined why the two have not been booked already in the case.

Referring to Nitish Kumar's "suicidal street play" remark, Prasad said he reckoned that it was a "warning" but he will continue his fight to expose those involved in the scam.

"It was a suicidal street play (atmaghati nukkad-natak) which will cost him (Prasad) heavily," Kumar had told reporters while commenting on the public meeting of the RJD chief and his son Tejashwi at Bhagalpur on Monday.
